Testing Red Relays

The link below outlines a process for checking relay operation.  There is a distinction between Black and Red relays (with the latter having a diode and fixed polarity)

I have been checking the Red round original relay on my 88 Carrera for the Cruise Control and it does not display these resistance characteristics at all across the 86 (+) and the 85 (-).  Nor do the other original relays. On the 86 - 85 I get 60 ohms - and also in the reverse direction. All the other relays are the same except for the Blower relay that shows a lower rating around 12 mili Ohms. I can't imagine all the relays are blown as everything works (except the CC but that is probably something else).

Not sure what is right or wrong on this one.
